How about some mini essays displaying the core reason our Forefathers were dead on correct about a system that enshrines the idea of empowering individualism…?
Not sure most get it.
I’ll start…
The system itself from the Declaration of Independence to the Constitution to the Check and balance system is all about a pwerful mass watching over the individual’s rights with the Bill of Rights probably the most important aspect of all their ideology combined.
I grant the idea that powerful murderers and thieves hijacked it, that lays at the feet of individuals as well but we cannot escape that fact…
Individuals are to hold a great system up or let it fall…A group of cheerleaders can drop the prettiest cheerleader on her ass or hold her high as individuals who choose to serve the structure…at any moment one or all can weaken the structure and then that individual should explain why he weakened the structure…
then all should listen because maybe that individual had a damn good reason why he let her fall…so all could see that there was something wrong.
Collectivism is the idea that one forest is greater than all the other forests and all the other trees. But the single tree is what constitutes the forest and those individuals ARE the forest…
A tree takes in carbon dioxide and gives oxygen in return…We as humans do the opposite take in what gives us life and return what trees breathe…amazing right?
For other people we find a skill that somehow works for us…the guy who is all thumbs welcomes the skilled neighbor and perhaps he returns remuneration or some other skill…
When the moneychangers took life and took it away from the true basics of life, an equal exchange and instead created counterfeit professions based on trading gibberish as money…favors and winks and handshakes and blackmail instead of skills…It all went to hell.
Believe it or not the Freemasons who escaped religious persecution from the Old world religious dictators worshipped concepts other than Jesus or Allah…etc…were worshippers of pagan Gods…and it was their desire to create a system that allowed for them to exist within the law and above ground that made up that system that attempted to honor all religions…
So on one hand we have to understand that unspoken but inferred concept and come to terms with it and on the other hand, it like every other belief system of an individual needs tolerance and the exchange has got to be equal and no equality has ever been served by secrecy or mathematics that throw the balance off…
We are destined to try and see the tree as a perfect example while seeing our religions in a context that realizes the belief in something greater takes focus from our own self thus allowing the thought pattern that the world doesn’t revolve around us but revolves around ideology that is bigger and better and not completely known to us…
However when examing that belief system we hear these values make statements like all men are evil and we as blood lineage are superior and our God requires blood sacrifice…then any person of sound mind would see that that religion is not one of equal exchange but like a fungus on a tree their to eat the tree, kill the tree for its own survival and move through the forest until the forest is gone…
It is not religion that is the problem it is whether or not that religion believes in decency and principles of goodness or quite the opposite.
We of course know what happened to the natives of this land as European men moved across the continent and the problem is one that asks but where did this selfishness begin? When did one forest begin its worship of its own needs over the good of all the other trees…?
Christians see many of the answers if not all in the bible, for those looking for answers elsewhere let’s look at history and more accurately a timeline, migration…We know what jesus and the Bible and other books and religions said about a certain blood sacrificng group that kept being chased from country to country…
From Mayans to Caininites to Hittites to Khazars to soddomites to moneychangers we see groups that worshipped by the sodomy of men women and children, the blood ritual of conquer and the worshipping of the lie as a means to an end…
That my friends is and was evil…
So how does one keep goodness front and center and evil under watchful eye if not a cage?
